Harris’ attempt to pander to Christians after insulting them goes very badly: ‘You’re at the wrong rally’
Kamala Harris’ latest attempt to pander to a group she has alienated with her politics and prejudices appears to be going very badly.
After attempting to
win back those black male voters now abandoning her and the Democratic Party en masse with the promise of federally legalized marijuana, Harris set her sights more broadly on Christian voters, insinuating that “putting faith into action” means casting a vote for her — despite her zealous support of abortion and gender ideology, her past anti-Christian remarks, and her efforts to run roughshod over religious liberties.
The online component of Harris’ “souls to the polls” campaign, which corresponded with her visits Sunday to churches in Georgia, was overwhelmingly met with ridicule.
Harris
tweeted an image of herself standing on a church platform with crosses in the background, stating, “We each have the power to make a difference — in our communities and in this election. Now is the time to come together to show faith in action and service.”
Despite netting nearly 2 million views on X, the post received fewer than 8,000 likes.
‘This is such disgusting, superficial, disingenuous pandering, it’s beyond words.’
BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey quipped, “Christian Nationalism is so scary.”
Auron MacIntyre, the host of BlazeTV’s “The Auron MacIntyre Show” who helped “ratio” the vice president’s post, responded, “I think you’re at the wrong rally.”
MacIntyre’s comment, which received roughly 9,000 more likes than Harris’ post by the time of publication, referred to the vice president’s remarks at her campaign event last week in La Crosse, Wisconsin.
On Thursday — the day Harris
blew off the Archdiocese of New York’s 79th annual Alfred E. Smith Memorial Foundation dinner — the vice president reportedly told a pair of Christian college students who yelled “Jesus is Lord” that they were “at the wrong rally.”
Grant Beth, one of the pro-life students mocked by Harris and elements of her crowd,
told “Fox & Friends,” “This is what you are going to get with a Kamala Harris presidency.”
“You are going to get the Kamala Harris that alienates over 50% of the U.S. population that is Christian,” continued Beth. “You’re going to get the Kamala Harris that skips the Al Smith Memorial Dinner.”
When an audience member yelled, “Jesus is King,” at a campaign event for Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), Trump’s running mate
said, “That’s right. Jesus is King!”
“Christians won’t be fooled,”
tweeted Trump campaign adviser Alex Bruesewitz wrote in response to Harris’ “souls to the polls” post.
Popular YouTuber David Freiheit
wrote, “4 days after telling a rally-goer who said ‘Jesus is Lord’ that they were ‘at the wrong rally’, Cackling Kamala puts out this message. This is such disgusting, superficial, disingenuous pandering, it’s beyond words. And if it works on you, you are an idiot.”
One user wrote, “Christians are voting for Trump.”
Harris told members of the New Birth Missionary Baptist Church in Stonecrest, Georgia, on Sunday, “Our country is at a crossroads, and where we go from here is up to us as Americans and as people of faith,”
reported CNN.
‘She has done nothing to support people of faith and what we believe and what we stand for.’
“We face this question: What kind of country do we want to live in?” said Harris. “A country of chaos, fear, and hate, or a country of freedom, compassion, and justice?”
Like the booster group
Evangelicals for Harris, the vice president attempted to use scripture to paint her political cause as morally righteous, casting herself, for example, as the protagonist in the parable of the Good Samaritan.
This might be a big reach for a great many American Christians, including Billy Graham’s son, Franklin Graham.
Blaze News
recently reported that Franklin Graham said his dad would never have supported a candidate like Harris, highlighting how her positions are antithetical to Jesus Christ.
“My father was a strong conservative all of his life, theologically as well as politically,” Graham
told Premier Christian News. “He would have never voted for or supported someone like Kamala Harris — someone who is almost anti-Christ in her positions. She has done nothing to support people of faith and what we believe and what we stand for.”
Harris has found numerous ways to alienate Christians, including
suggesting that Catholic judicial nominees who embrace the Vatican’s moral teaching should be disqualified from serving on federal courts;
co-sponsoring the “Equality Act,” which Kenneth Craycraft, the James J. Gardner Chair of Moral Theology at Mount St. Mary’s Seminary and School of Theology, indicated would compel Christian hospitals “to perform gender transition surgeries, open women’s
restrooms to men, and force girls and women to compete against boys and
men in athletic competitions”;
introducing and sponsoring the Do No Harm Act, which would force religious individuals and organizations to engage in
activities that directly violate their firmly held religious beliefs;
attacking abstinence education;
supporting overturning the Hyde Amendment, thereby freeing up federal funds for abortions; and
authorizing a raid on the home of a pro-life activist who exposed Planned Parenthood’s alleged trafficking of baby parts.
